According to Department of Electricity Development, about 17 solar projects are currently being constructed in Nepal. NEA along with private sector investors are developing these projects. The department has already issued the license for the construction and the work of these projects is going on full swing.
As an alternative source of energy, solar power is gaining popularity across the global as well as in Nepal. Although the major investments for electricity production has flowed towards hydropower projects in Nepal, investors in solar projects have increased in recent years.
Kathmandu, April 24, 2025 — In a significant stride towards sustainable energy, the Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) has awarded contracts for 960 megawatts (MW) of solar power projects. This allocation, surpassing the initial target of 800 MW, underscores Nepal’s commitment to diversifying its energy portfolio and reducing reliance on hydropower.
Six of the country’s seven provinces generate hydropower as their main energy source, while Madhes Province generates solar energy. While NEA (Nepal Electricity Authority) and its subsidiaries own and operate 20 generation stations, the remaining are owned and operated by Independent Power Producers (IPP).
The average size of hydropower projects on Nepal’s grid is 15.5MW, while the average solar project is 4.2MW. The average size of projects under construction is larger -- 39.5MW for hydro and 6.9MW for solar respectively. For most hill and mountain districts, hydropower is easily the largest investment, private or public, in their history.
Nepal’s strategy of decentralised power development is coming to maturity in the era of the climate crisis, when the global response has been a surge in renewable energy investments and grids all over the world pushing to become decentralised.
